Well im actually a fan of the 1911....just not worn out ones with tiny useless sights.

Depends on why you're getting it. If it's for the history, then the sights are not a biggie. If it's for accurate shooting, then, that's different.

OP: Depending on how serious you are, if you want a real combat-carried 1911, seek out a reputable collector.
